The Liberal Democratic Party (Macedonian: Либерално-демократска партија, Liberalno-demokratska partija) is a social-liberal^[1] political party in North Macedonia. The Liberal Democratic Party was launched in April 1997 as a merger between the Liberal Party and the Democratic Party. The first leader of the party was Petar Goshev from the Democrats, who was also the last president of the League of Communists of Macedonia. When the Liberal Party was re-established in 1999, a significant portion of the former Liberal Party remained in LDP.

Since 1994 the LDP has been a member of Liberal International. The party is also an affiliate member of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party.^[2] The party's president from 2006 until 2011 was Jovan Manasievski. In 2011, Andrej Žernovski was elected as the new leader of the party. He was in that position until 2015 when in the party's congress Goran Milevski was elected as president. The party's current leader is Monika Zajkova, elected in 2022.^[3]
